Comments

Hello, and thank you for watching VisiHow. Today, I'll explain to you what kind of information you, as the concierge, need from a guest in a hotel when they ask you for a restaurant reservation. Let's look at what kind of information you need to be taking from that guest in order to expedite the reservation and confirmation process.

1. 1
   When a hotel guest asks for a restaurant reservation, the first thing to do is find out where they would like to go

   .

   There may be an additional step involved in here, which will be providing recommendations. We will be covering providing recommendations in another video. When the guest makes a decision, we need to make sure we know which restaurant the guest would like to go to.

   Ask for the preferred date and the time of the reservation

   .

   Consider requesting a back-up if it is busy in the city, or if the restaurant is a particularly busy restaurant. This is good to have just in case the guest's first preference is not available.

   Ask for the number of people in the party

   .

   If the reservation will be for two people, or five or six people, we need to have this information and provide it to the restaurant when we make the call.

   Provide a confirmation card to the guest that outlines the date, time, location, number of people and name on the reservation

   .

   We can keep this card with the concierge at the concierge desk if the guest has gone out and will be returning later. Alternatively, slide the card under the guest's hotel room door.
